Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to attend Brighter Paths LLC?

Our homes are $800 a month, plus a one-time, up-front administration fee of $150.

What is the administration fee?

The administration fee covers the cost of setting up a resident’s room, transportation from a treatment facility, and administrative paperwork. It is not considered a deposit and is non-refundable.

What is NOT included in my monthly fee?

The monthly fee does not include food or toiletries. The residences are fully furnished, including bedding, paper products, washer/dryer, Wi-Fi, cable, house computer, etc.

Are residents allowed to have vehicles, laptops, cell phones, money, etc.?

Yes, this is not an inpatient treatment facility. Recovery residences are a much lower level of care. Residents should be ready to handle these things by the time they reach this particular level of care.


Is transportation provided?

No, daily transportation is the resident’s responsibility. It is the resident’s responsibility to ask for help and develop a sober network through outpatient programs. However we do arrange for initial pick-up from local treatment centers.

Do you monitor residents?

Yes, the manager or peer leader will make sure that everyone is home by curfew (11 p.m. weekdays, 12 a.m. weekends). Residents will receive random UAs throughout the week. Room searches will be conducted if necessary. A resident will be expected to stay in contact with the house manager with text messages and phone calls throughout the day for the first week.

How many clients are in each room?

2 clients maximum per bedroom.

Can I have a job?

YES! A huge part of recovery is becoming a productive member of society. Clients are required to work or volunteer at least 20 hours per week. Clients can also be a full time student.
